Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). This step is crucial as it ensures that your cookies bake evenly and achieve that perfect golden color.
-
Cream together the softened butter, cream cheese, and sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy. This process aerates the mixture, making your cookies tender and delicious.
-
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined. The egg adds richness, while the vanilla brings out the sweet flavors beautifully.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking soda. This helps ensure an even distribution of the leavening agent throughout your cookies.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if there are a few small lumps.
-
Gently fold in the blueberries. This adds tremendous flavor and a burst of freshness to your cookies; take care not to break them too much to keep their shape.
-
Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure to leave enough space between each cookie, allowing them room to spread while baking.
-
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may appear slightly soft, but they will firm up as they cool, giving you a perfectly chewy cookie.
-
Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely. This step allows the flavors to meld together, resulting in an irresistible treat!
